Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound cooked fresh Maine lobster meat, chilled
2 tablespoons mayonnaise, preferably extra heavy (see Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons butter, melted, plus more if needed
4 New England-style hot dog rolls (see Cook's Note)
Minced fresh chives, for topping
1/2 lemon, cut into 4 wedges

Steps:

  • Cut and tear the lobster meat into large chunks, closely checking for bits of shell. Keep the claws as intact as possible for the best presentation.
  • In a large bowl, use a spatula to mix the lobster meat with the mayonnaise, coating evenly. The more chilled the mayonnaise, the better it will coat.
  • Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Using a pastry brush, liberally brush the melted butter on both sides of the hot dog rolls and place in the skillet. Toast each side to a golden brown color, using more butter as needed.
  • Fill each roll with about 4 ounces of the lobster mixture. Sprinkle the tops with chives. Serve with a lemon wedge, which can also be squeezed on top.
  • Serve immediately--the goal is to serve when you still have a warm, buttery roll with the cool creamy lobster meat. Enjoyed best with a view of the ocean.

I'm not a huge fan of lobster, but I really enjoyed this lobster roll. The lemon-butter sauce was the perfect complement to the lobster.

I thought the lobster roll was just okay. The lobster was a bit overcooked.

The lobster roll was a bit too salty for my taste.

Not a fan of the lemon-butter sauce. Otherwise, the lobster roll was good.

I've tried many lobster roll recipes, but this one is by far the best. The lobster is tender and juicy, and the roll is perfectly grilled.

This lobster roll was a hit at my summer party! The lobster was perfectly cooked and the roll was soft and buttery. I will definitely be making this again.
